Its central eye is inside its mouth? I guess that makes "watch what you eat" particular easy for it, then. Johnathan

Oddly enough, my son and I just started watching Black Mirror at the advice of a co-worker of mine. We're only two episodes in, but we're already enjoying it immensely. I guess "Metalhead" is just three short seasons in my future. Johnathan

Close - it was in "The Three Doctors," a Jon Pertwee (Third Doctor) episode, that we first met up with Omega. Johnathan

I'm now back on my steady diet of "Joe Ledger" books by Jonathan Maberry, the latest being #9, Dogs of War. The threat this time is autonomous robot dogs run by AI, running amok. It's as well done as the others, but I can't help but visualize Skippy, the robot dog from the original animated...

I had my head shaved three Saturdays ago...but only after I had the barber gather up individual clumps of my hair, rubber band each clump tightly, and cut it off as close to the scalp as possible. This is the second time I've donated my hair to Wigs for Kids, a charity that takes donated hair...

Fetched stolen item...in Hell. Johnathan

I'm now on book #6 of Jonathan Maberry's Captain Joe Ledger series, Code Zero. This time, he's up against a team that overran a lab where all sorts of infectious bacterial diseases are stored for study, and are now releasing them in the world. And I'll be on a week-long business trip next...

Like some others in this thread, I've found it often Johnathan

I notice he has at least 11 eyestalks as well.... Johnathan

Plus, then it's easier to do crossovers from one title to another. Johnathan

The last couple minutes of The Mist. Johnathan
